"m" toggle works as:
/---> Normal Play ---> Repeat Track ->-\
\-<--------- Repeat Disk <-------------/
Normal Play and Repeat Disk are correct.
Only Repeat Track causes problems.
Your "Example 3" script did not work:
Volume indicated 0;
Elapsed time indicated 14 minutes (start of track 5);
No sound from loudspeakers;
*** CDrom pickup arm repeatedly extended and retracted every 2 seconds;
***
Ctrl "C" was required to exit the script, track 5 then played at full
volume.
modified your script:
cat <<END | playcd
>>>>
-----
mm # note extra "m"
q
END
Track 5 then played at full volume, with indicated volume = 0 and mode =
Repeat Disk
Have also tried loading DOS cdrom drivers before runing loadlin to boot
mulinux but symptoms are unchanged.

Hint taken. Sorry to have caused you to go against your principles.
Thanks for trying it anyway.
I shouldn't take a holier than thou attitude. I have got NT4 on my box
it makes a great boot manager to boot different flavours of Linux. My
only niggle is that every time I delete
"NT 4 Workstation" from the boot menu the loader writes it back at the
next boot.
Yes I know Lilo can be used for multibooting but I have lost count of
the number of times following reconfiguration it displays "LI" and then
freezes, my only recourse being a rescue floppy. On one occasion it even
tried to mount the root on /dev/psaux; needless to say it didn't get
very far. Well that is enough of my ramblings. Thanks again.
Clive
